Crop Wild Relatives Crosses: Multi-Location Assessment in Durum Wheat, Barley, and Lentil
Crop wild relatives (CWR) are a good source of useful alleles for climate change adaptation.
Here, 19 durum wheat, 24 barley, and 24 lentil elites incorporating CWR in their pedigrees were yield
tested against commercial ...
Comparative Biology and Life Cycle of The Barley Stem Gall Midge and Hessian fly (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) in Morocco
The barley stem gall midge, Mayetiola hordei (Keiffer) is the most serious pest of barley in
Morocco. The biology and life cycle of this insect were studied in a laboratory and under
natural weather conditions. The results ...
First Report of Spot Blotch of Barley Caused by Cochliobolus sativus in Morocco
Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is grown on ∼2 million hectares in Morocco (av. 1.2 t/ha), with ∼70% under semiarid conditions (FAO 2017). Historically, net form net blotch (NFNB) (Pyrenophora teres f. teres [Ptt]) and spot ...
Wheat and barley seed system in Syria: How diverse are wheat and barley varieties and landraces from farmer’s fields?
The present study described the diversity of wheat and barley varieties and
landraces available in farmer’s fields in Syria using different indicators. Analysis
of spatial and temporal diversity and coefficient of parentage ...
Farmer participation in barley breeding in Syria, Morocco and Tunisia
The paper describes experiments on farmer participation in plant breeding conducted in three countries (Morocco, Syria and Tunisia) on barley, which is the predominant annual rainfed crop in the most marginal areas of these ...
Genome-wide association studies of net form of net blotch resistance at seedling and adult plant stages in spring barley collection
Net form of net blotch (NFNB) of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), caused by Pyrenophora teres f. teres (Ptt) Drechsler (anamorph: Drechslera teres [Sacc.] Shoem.), is considered one of the major constraints of successful barley ...
Molecular and phenotypic diversity of ICARDA spring barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) collection
Plant breeders are interested in using diverse genotypes in hybridization that can segregate for traits of importance with possibility of selection and genetic gain. Information on molecular and agro-morphological diversity ...
Towards the conservation of crop wild relative diversity in North Africa: checklist, prioritisation and inventory
Crop wild relatives (CWR) are wild species that are more or less genetically related to crops that can be used to introgress useful genes for improvement of productivity, resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses and quality ...
Seedling and adult stage resistance to spot form of net blotch (SFNB) in spring barley and stability of adult stage resistance to SFNB in Morocco
The aims of this study were to identify resistance to spot form of net blotch (SFNB) in spring barley and to investigate the stability of SFNB resistance in Morocco. The seedling resistance to SFNB was evaluated by inoculating ...
Development of specific primers for the detection of HVA1 from barley in transgenic durum wheat by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technology
Genetic transformation is a widely employed tool in both basic research and commercial plant breeding
programs. Its application requires that transgenes be stably integrated and expressed in the plant
genome. When transgenic ...
